[Asterisk-Users] iaxmodem

[asterisk at frameweb.it]

I succed in configuring hylafax and iaxmodem, everything is OK now.

The only problem was the following:

if I start manually, as root,

/usr/local/bin/iaxmodem ttyIAX
/usr/local/sbin/faxgetty ttyIAX

and then start hylafax server everything is OK

If I try to add to /etc/inittab
IAX:2345:respawn:/usr/local/bin/iaxmodem ttyIAX
modem:2345:respawn:/usr/local/sbin/faxgetty ttyIAX

and then restart the server (or just the init via init -q or kill -HUP 1),
the iaxmodem starts, but faxgetty doesn't

Actually I discovered the problem:

modem is too long (at least for SUSE), maximum is 4 character
if I change to

mo:2345:respawn:/usr/local/sbin/faxgetty ttyIAX

is OK

For hylafax to answer a call, you need to use faxgetty.. Add this 2
lines to your /etc/inittab  and run   "init q"  to force a reload:

IAX:2345:respawn:/usr/local/bin/iaxmodem ttyIAX
modem:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyIAX

Change the paths according to your system.
